Plough Hill View, Nuneaton
Small Development
Another ground up development, which saw the creation of five modern new builds.​
​
The fundraiser successfully pitched to the crowd and received £100,000, this time from 43 investors. ​The project offered 30% per annum and successfully paid out the return to investors.
​
The fundraiser has raised on a further three projects, which are currently all at various stages of the build process.
Hall Barn Road, Isleham
Mid-size Development
This ground-up development planned to build 17 new homes in Isleham, Cambridgeshire, 5 of which were designated as affordable housing units.
​
The project raised £900K over two raises - the first being a private or behind the curtain raise. This is where the fundraiser has their own investors and wants to offer the deal to them, but wants to do so in a compliant manner.
​
The projected ROI for the first raise is 47% and 33.3% for the second raise.
Becontree Avenue, Dagenham
Income Generating
A move away from the vanilla type development deals, this income generating project offered investors an opportunity to invest in an already built and tenanted property - a BTL without the buying or letting!
​
The project raised £342K over two raises with investors benefitting from a share of the rental yield.
​
The projected ROI for both raises was 12% per annum for a two year project. A total of 69 investors became shareholders in this raise.
The Old Woollen Mill, North Tawton
Planning Uplift Project
The conversion of an old woollen mill based in North Tawton in Devon, this project is currently in the final stages of planning.
​
Having completed two successful raises on the project, the fundraiser has built a strong crowd investor base.
​
The project offers 50% per annum for a two year project (the higher return due to the higher risk profile of the project).
Central Point, Liverpool
Large Scale Development Project
Brought to the platform by the Integritas Property Group based in Liverpool, this ground-up multi-apartment development, successfully raised £100,000 equity from 31investors on a 19% per annum ROI.
​
The project is currently in the construction stage and is one of four apartment blocks being built around a central courtyard in a regeneration area near the riverfront. With much inward government investment, this was a unique opportunity for the shareholders.
Deal Structuring

ROI
How do you calculate what your Return on Investment (ROI) should be? Would MIRR be a better option? What percentage can you afford to make your deal attractive?
Deal Size/Type
What type of deal are you offering to investors? What deal size is attractive to investors? What are your margins and have you completed a financial stress test?
What are some of the important factors when structuring a deal?
Potential Equity
Have you found a source for your equity funding, usually the last and often hardest part of the Capital Stack to source?
Testimonials
Hietesh Shridhar
Having now raised successfully on four projects through David, one of which has already paid out to investors, I view property crowdfunding as one of my main funding strategies, particularly for sourcing equity, the last piece in the puzzle.
IPG
This was our first experience with crowdfunding and it was an opportunity to see the logistics of raising funds compliantly when sourcing multiple investors. All in all it was a productive experience that allowed us to engage with new investors.
